Sports injury including pulled or strained muscles and sprained STUDY CONDUCTED BY OUR UNIT TO EVUALVATE EFFICACY OF CUPPING THERAPY (AL-Hejama) IN PAIN FULL SHOULDER.

The main compliant was pain around the shoulder with diffuse radiation down to the middle of the arm and common clinical presentation in the middle aged and elderly people.

What Is Frozen Shoulder?

Frozen shoulder is a condition that causes loss of movement in the shoulder joint. The diagnosis of frozen shoulder is often used for any painful shoulder condition associated with a loss of motion.

What Are The Symptoms Of Frozen Shoulder?

Frozen shoulder is characterized by a decrease in movement, primarily seen in lifting the arm and turning it inwards. A frozen shoulder is most common in the 40 - 60 year old age group and it is twice as common in women as men. Most cases of frozen shoulder follow a specific pattern. Initially, there is an acute phase that is characterized by significant pain, difficulty sleeping, and significant functional impairment. This is followed by a progressive stiffening phase when the shoulder motion worsens. The final phase is the resolution or thawing phase identified by the gradual return of both motion and function. The overall course is variable but can last 12 - 36 months.

What Causes Frozen Shoulder?

The most common causes of frozen shoulders are:

· Hyperthyroidism (excessive production of thyroid hormones)

· Diabetes

· Heart/ circulatory diseases

· A fracture or other arm injury

· Shoulder injury/ surgery

· Cervical disk disease

· Degenerative arthritis

While these common causes seem quite different, they all lead to any of the following two fundamental causes of frozen shoulder:

High density of impurities in the blood. The accumulation of impurities can settle near the shoulder joints, muscle joints, and the belt of muscles and block the normal blood circulation in these areas, which in turn can lead to shoulder pain and loss of motion in the shoulder joint. Common causes such as hyperthyroidism, diabetes, and heart/ circulatory diseases can all lead to such a high density of impurities in the blood.

Inflammation in the shoulder joint capsule. The capsule of a shoulder joint includes the ligaments that attach the shoulder bones to each other. When inflammation occurs within the capsule, there is less ability for the shoulder bones to freely move within the joint. For this reason a frozen shoulder is also called an adhesive (scarred) capsulitis (inflamed joint capsule). Common causes such as a fracture or other arm injury, shoulder injury/ surgery, cervical disk disease, and degenerative arthritis can all lead to inflammation in the shoulder joint capsule.

STEAM THERAPY AND MASSAGE THERAPY

Research suggests and as well as all know that the herbal massage & steam therapy was used in several countries with herbal medicine for the treatment of different diseases. Such countries are GREEK, EGYPTIAN, and INDIAN & CHINEES. Physician HIPPOCRATES (Buqrat) 460-377 BC & the great physician GALIN (Jalinoos) in 131-210AD was known to use herbal massage & steam therapy for the treatment and prevention of various diseases.
